History enthusiasts, take note! Nestled in the heart of the Meeting House Historic District in charming old Rockingham Village lies an incredible opportunity to own one of the area’s oldest homes. Known as “The Betsy House” and listed in some records as the “John Cooper House” this historic Cape-style home dates back to 1760 or circa 1805, depending on town archives. This 1,130 square-foot gem is brimming with antique charm. It features a covered entry porch, a cozy eat-in kitchen, a bath, a living room complete with a woodstove, and a den. The second floor contains two bedrooms, each with a staircase. A room in between is used as an office, study or dressing room. The level yard with fruit trees adds to the appeal, chairs set beside a neighboring field is the perfect place for relaxing and watching wildlife. A quaint barn houses a one-car garage, workshop/potting area and woodshed. Set in a picturesque country setting, this property offers a fantastic and affordable opportunity for those eager to restore a vintage home.
